Uniforms & Patch Placement

Wearing the Cub Scout uniform will provide many benefits for your son including teaching him about equality, belonging, achievement and commitment to scouting ideals. In general, every Cub Scout should wear his uniform to all Cub Scouting activities, including den and pack meetings, unit outings, and any activities done with members of the den or pack.

The links below will help you understand the elements of a complete scouting uniform.

Any time you are uncertain about the elements of your boy’s uniform, just ask his den leader for guidance.

Purchasing a Uniform:

The staff or Boy Scout working at one of our area Scout Shops will know exactly what you need and help guide you. The essential information you need to know is that you are in Pack 24 in Attleboro, Narragansett Council, and you will need to know your scout’s rank and den number. From there they will get you all the correct patches.

Socks—While official socks are available – Tigers’ socks are navy blue with orange tops; Cub Scouts’ socks are navy blue with gold tops – Pack 24 does not have a strong preference. Your scout should ALWAYS wear socks of any style comfortable.

Neckerchief—Triangular neckerchief is orange with navy-blue trim for Tigers, gold with navy-blue trim for Wolf Scouts, light blue with navy-blue trim for Bear Scouts, and plaid for Webelos Scouts. Official BSA neckerchiefs are the only neckerchiefs that boys should wear. Packs should not make their own pack neckerchiefs.

Webelos Scouts may choose to wear either the blue Webelos uniform based on the Cub Scout uniform or the tan/olive uniform similar to the one that Boy Scouts wear.

Cubmaster’s Note: We recommend the den leader work with parents and that the den agree to standardize on either the blue or the tan uniforms. Traditionally our scouts have been excited to change to the tan uniform.

For the tan/olive uniform, boys wear the official Boy Scout olive trousers or shorts and official Boy Scout tan long- or short-sleeved shirt with blue shoulder loops. Official blue socks (with gold tops) are worn with the blue uniform, and official olive socks (with red tops) are worn with the tan/olive uniform.
